Tornado Jim Competes with his SisterTornado Jim was an unruly evil F-5.
He barely left anyone alive.
Threw cattle and tractors into the air.
Crushed combines and backhoes; he did not care.
Gloated that he had destroyed more farms than his sis.
She gave him a mean finger and snarled with a hiss.
Next time she destroyed, she vowed to be worse than him.
She was always...

The Perfect Big SisterI am the ignored big sister,
The good big sister,
The must be perfect big sister.
I look at the high podium that I was forced to build.
Why?
I don't want this..
My little brother hates me,
My Grandparents expect everything from me,
My parents expect more from me.
No one knows me.
You must think I'm a perfect...

Gonewhy must you be this way,
we came united and you know our ways,
you spreaded your wings and left,
you have forgotten of what we descended of,
and you left us ashamed,
i cry alone in the dark,
awaiting for your return,
but in the end its just stone cold,
i wish you came back but it will never be true....

daisies and sunflowers bloom—
Maria's smile drifts
I see her walking

Womenthe women of my lifetime
are women of a lifeline
they teach me kindness from bright minds
the ones who
despite it all
are still planting seeds
in this ugly world
turning fields of greed
into fields of green
and hate into lovely words
and that's sisters, mothers
girlfriends, lovers
the ones who'll
smother us in hugs
when we're down in trenches
plagued by what's above us
the ones who...

My mother and sister cannot readChildhood was to see my
mother get abused by my father
and wanting to do something about it
But it’s her who allowed that abuse
It’s her who stopped me,
but didn’t stop my father
Adulthood is to see my
sister getting abused by her husband
and not being able to do anything
because it’s her...

Shattered SoulI’m only desired when I conform,
If I play my part, a mute who performs.
Don’t be different, honest, or true,
Wrong, always wrong. Be anything but you.
No wonder my load is so hard to carry,
The hate I swallow, so I won’t be contrary.
The contempt and disappointment they inflict,
If only they knew how I fought for...

DEAR SISTERI don't know why I'm so pissed off
It ain't the five hundred
And it ain't the storm
It's the dream that my writing has merit
And my sister won't give me the satisfaction
of thinking that I could do good
She's just like my mother was
Always looking down her nose
Saying I'll never be able to look after myself
Not believing in...

DNADNA
“You are not worthy of my love.”
Silent words scorch skin like an invisible flame.
DNA passed down and left to wither,
a family heirloom I don’t dare claim.
A cracked and shattered mirror,
a broken picture frame—
I see nothing of you in me,
and maybe that’s why you never say my name.
But when the scoreboard flashes victory,
your number lights up...

Cardboard CastlesCardboard Castles
You came in like thunder—
wild, loud, and sharp with flame.
Eyes like chaos, smile like fire,
never still, and never tame.
We shared a bed when we were small,
built kingdoms out of pillow forts.
You held my hand in quiet dark,
and we survived in whispered sorts.
But life came fast, and you let go—
chose smoke and speed, the chase,...

THE PHOENIXTo rise from the ashes is a true definition of you
Your spirit and mind will be refreshing and new
To give off a vibration that will set things apart
Is the definition of a winner that's running the race from the start
Your essence of touch will turn darkness to light
Your voice will be thunderous, and it...

My SistersMy sisters are my pride and glory/
An endless legion, woven into my story/
Our bond defies the boundaries of space/
A sacred connection no vastness can erase/
I dwell in shadows, a soul of the night/
Yet their love surrounds me, a radiant light/
No judgement do they cast, no fear do they bring/
In their embrace, my heart takes wing/
To...

I once got snubbed by a gal from WalesI once got snubbed by a gal from Wales,
who took a rather dim view of males.
She liked girls so much better
cuz they'd never upset her
with made-up masculine-conquest tales.

An Adolescent's PainAdored sister, dry the warm tears
flowing from these gleaming eyes:
let them dazzle more than jewels:
they are dedicated to all sweet mothers
who live for their sons, unlikely fathers
whose role is to teach them harsh lessons!
Dad was a shameless womanizer, he demanded
faithfulness from mother and discipline from us;
he rarely smiled and hugged us in needy times:
we looked...
